One airport.
Many working days.

A passenger sees one airport. Behind the scenes are teams with very different jobs, environments and uniform needs.

A ground handler’s outdoor kit, a security officer’s uniform and a facilities team’s everyday clothing should each work for the wearer, while belonging to the same organisation.

  • Airside: visibility, practical movement and weather protection.
  • Terminal: a recognisable appearance, comfortable fits and coordinated layers.
  • Behind the scenes: durable clothing and protection selected for the task.

Kit out every part of your airport.

Choose a team to see practical starting points from our catalogue. Each shortlist is a starting point for discussion; check individual specifications against the role and your airport’s requirements.

Airside & ground handling

For crews moving between the apron, baggage areas and outdoor operations, start with the airport’s visibility requirements, then plan for movement, changing weather and the full shift.

Check: local airside rules • visibility class and colour • fit over layers • task-specific footwear

Built around a whole shift.

Think beyond the first garment on the order. A useful kit works as a system, from the base layer to the outer jacket and footwear.

Outside in changing weather

Plan layers that can be added or removed as conditions change. Check waterproof performance, fit over the uniform and whether the outermost layer provides the required visibility.

Moving between spaces

Walking routes, vehicles and sheltered work areas can call for different layers. Check that clothing allows reaching, bending and seated work without loose fabric getting in the way.

Long days on your feet

Fit, comfort and the actual floor conditions matter. Compare protection and slip performance, then consider a wearer trial before committing to a wider footwear rollout.

The details worth checking.

Start with the job, the working environment and your airport’s own rules. The right combination of clothing and PPE can vary between departments and tasks.

Our team can help compare product specifications and build a shortlist around the requirements you provide.

PPE selection must follow the employer’s risk assessment and local airport requirements. These product ideas do not replace task-specific assessment or operating procedures.

Visibility and the outermost layer

Check the required garment class, colour and coverage for the work area. A jacket worn over a hi-vis vest must not hide the visibility the wearer needs. Allow enough room for seasonal layers without an excessively loose fit.

Footwear and underfoot conditions

Specify the actual surfaces, wet areas and contaminants the team encounters. Compare slip performance alongside protection and comfort. Where metal-free footwear is required by local procedures, check the whole construction; a non-metallic toecap alone does not establish that the entire shoe is metal-free.

Gloves for the actual task

Dry handling, wet work, cut hazards and chemical contact need different glove properties. Check the substance and exposure for chemical tasks. A general handling glove should not be treated as chemical protection.

Hearing protection and communication

Choose hearing protection for the assessed noise exposure while allowing for safety and communication. Check how it works with any head, eye or other equipment the wearer needs.

Care, condition and replacement

Follow the manufacturer’s washing instructions and any stated wash-cycle limits. Check garments and footwear for damage and wear, and plan replacement before protection or practical performance is compromised.

Branding without compromising protection

Agree logo positions before decorating protective garments. Check the manufacturer’s limits on decoration and keep reflective tape and required fluorescent areas clear. Tell us any department identifiers or local colour rules at the start.

Define the roles

Share the departments, working conditions, local requirements and quantities you need to cover.

02

Build the wardrobe

Compare garments, fits, size ranges and seasonal layers. Agree any samples or wearer trials before rollout.

03

Add your identity

Plan print or embroidery, department names and suitable logo positions for each garment.

04

Plan repeat supply

Agree how new starters, replacements and future orders will keep the uniform consistent.

Questions from airport teams.

Does everyone at an airport need the same hi-vis?

No single outfit covers every airport role. The appropriate class, colour and coverage depend on the task, working area and local airport rules. Confirm those requirements before choosing garments.

Can we coordinate airside and terminal uniforms?

Yes. A common colour palette and agreed branding can connect different wardrobes. Protective garments still need to meet the requirements of the role, even where their colour or design differs.

Can we include different fits and sizes?

We can help compare available fits, sizes and leg lengths across the ranges. Product availability varies, so agree the wearer size profile and any samples before finalising a uniform.

What should we send for a team quotation?

A department list, approximate wearer numbers, required garments, colours, size information, logo artwork, delivery date and any airport or PPE specifications will give us a useful starting point.
